主权项 1. A plate-shaped member transfer facility comprising: a rack main body including a storage space and a carry-in opening, the storage space being configured to store a plurality of plate-shaped members such that the plurality of plate-shaped members stand and are arranged in an arrangement direction so as to be adjacent to one another in a thickness direction of the plate-shaped member, andthe carry-in opening being an opening through which the plate-shaped members are carried in the storage space in a horizontal carry-in direction intersecting with the arrangement direction; a transfer device configured to carry the plate-shaped members in the storage space through the carry-in opening; a plurality of upper supporting portions provided in the storage space in the arrangement direction when viewed from the carry-in direction; lower supporting portions provided in the storage space, each lower supporting portion respectively located under an upper supporting portion; lower edge portion storage portions provided in the storage space, each lower edge portion storage portion located at an outer side of an end of the upper supporting portion and an end of the lower supporting portion in the arrangement direction; a posture changing mechanism provided at a lower portion of the rack main body and including supporting bodies which are movable upward, downward, and in the arrangement direction; and a controller configured to control the transfer device and the posture changing device, wherein: the controller causes the transfer device to: carry the plate-shaped member in the storage space through the carry-in opening in the carry-in direction in a state where the plate-shaped member is inclined such that an upper edge portion of the plate-shaped member is supported by one of the upper supporting portions and a lower edge portion of the plate-shaped member is stored in the lower edge portion storage portion corresponding to the one of the upper supporting portions, andthe controller causes the posture changing mechanism to: cause the supporting bodies to support the lower edge portion of the plate-shaped member stored in the lower edge portion storage portion,cause the supporting bodies to move up and lift up the plate-shaped member from below,cause the supporting bodies to move in the arrangement direction, andmount the lower edge portion, from the supporting bodies, onto the lower portion corresponding to the one of the upper supporting portions.
